Update site logo on all SharePoint sites in a site collection

Update site logo on all SharePoint sites in a site collection

Hi there - I used the script below to update the site logo on a bunch of SharePoint Site Collections today - hope it proves useful to you

 ## Set up the variables

$SiteURL = "http://intranet/sites/office"

$spWeb = Get-SPWeb $SiteURL

$logopath = "C:\Scripts\Logo\logo_SPsites.png"

Write-Host("- Uploading and updating site logo") -ForegroundColor Magenta

## Creating instance of Folder

$spFolder = $spWeb.GetFolder("SiteAssets")

## Getting the file on Disk that we want to upload

$file = Get-Item $logopath

## Uploading the file the the Site Assets library

$null = 

$spFolder.Files.Add("SiteAssets/logo_SPsites.png",$file.OpenRead(),$false)

   

## Set the logo on all webs in the site:      

$sitelogo="$siteurl/$spFolder/ERIS_logo_SPsites.png"

$Site=$SiteURL

$Sites=new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($Site)

foreach($web in $Sites.Allwebs) {

$web.SiteLogoUrl=$sitelogo

$web.Update()}

$Sites.Dispose()

Translating SharePoint Audit log reports:

Translating Site ID and PrincipleID

I produced a Audit report for Security events and though I can see that some security events occurred on the relevant dates I couldn't find a way to translate the Site ID and the Principle ID in the Site ID and Event Data columns. 

It can be done! Enter PowerShell!!!!

Audit Log exported to Excel and downloaded: It just looks horrible

Translate the siteID:

$site = get-spsite -limit all

$site | select ID, url | ft -AutoSize | out-file C:\Scripts\siteID.txt

Then I did a find in the .txt file to match the site ID with the URL

e.g.

Translate the PrincipleID:

  

$site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("http://SPWebApplication");  

$ServiceContext = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPServiceContext]::GetContext($site);  

$ProfileManager = new-object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($ServiceContext)    

$AllProfiles = $ProfileManager.GetEnumerator() 

$AllProfiles | select displayname,recordID | ft -autosize | out-file c:\scripts\profiles.txt

Then do a Find on the Principle ID and you will get the Display name mapping:

Translating groupid and userid

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=

Pasted from <http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/156443/who-is-behind-which-id-in-audit-logs>

E.G

I’ve run a custom security report and the results show 5 permissions edits:

The Event Data column shows the user affected in group\user format

To find:

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=218

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=283

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=8

Etc

This shows you either the user's information or the group's members depending on the entered id 

So: 

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=218 - shows a user id

/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?id=8 - shows group membership

Note: The ids are unique within site collections only. So ...?id=42 within site collection A might be a different user or group in site collection B.

That's all folks - Thanks for visiting!

SharePoint Solution checker

Here is a nice little script I use to audit Solutions:


#This loads the SharePoint assemblies

asnp *sh* -ea 0

#Start solution audit

$allsolutions = (get-spsolution).SolutionID

foreach

($solution in $allsolutions)

{

$filteredfeaturelist = get-SPFeature | where {$_.SolutionID -eq "$solution"}

write-host -background Blue Name = $filteredfeaturelist.DisplayName

write-host -BackgroundColor Green -ForegroundColor Black Version = $filteredfeaturelist.ReceiverAssembly

write-host ""

}

Change the location of the IIS log files - IIS7

At some point - you'll need to stop IIS logging to the C:\

Open the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell

 The IIS snap-in first needs to be loaded using Import-Module WebAdministration

 Here is the command to change the log file directory for the default web site:

Set-ItemProperty 'IIS:\Sites\Default Web Site' -name logFile.directory -value 'D:\IISLogs'

Now, open up the IIS Manager console, expand Sites, click on the site you changed the log directory for and double click on Logging under the IIS section. You should see the new directory location under Log File

 You will need to perform this on each server in the farm.
